Because if something isn’t compatible with you, fun, and effective, you aren’t going to do it!

To help you along on your path to tight abs and toned thighs, or maybe just a more healthful outlook on life, we’ve made a list of the Top 10 Los Angeles Exercise Trends Perfect For Your New Year’s Resolution!

10. Piloxing

If you’d like to mesh the muscle-sculpting, body-healing properties of pilates with the fat-burning cardio of boxing, Piloxing might be your ticket to a bangin’ bikini bod this year.

Swedish dancer and celebrity trainer, Viveca Jensen, created the popular exercise method and her studio is in Toluca Lake!

If you want to become a “tight little package,” as they say in the video, try the Bar Method. The Bar Method incorporates isometric training, dance conditioning, and physical therapy to tone and elongate your body—Ballerina-style.

Pop Physique might look easy, but after the class, your muscles will be begging for mercy! Pop Physique is like a combo of ballet barre exercises, pilates, light weight training, and isometrics–all in a poppy little package.

And with enough Pop Physique–that poppy little package will be you!

Want to try out Pop Physique? Don’t worry! There are convenient classes all over Southern California!

Becoming “fit” is not just an exercise of your body, but an exercise of your mind.

A more “spiritual” type of yoga than Vinyasa or Power Yoga types of classes, Kundalini Yoga helps realign your body and your spirit, expand your consciousness, and make you “aware” of what is going on inside and outside your body through physical yoga exercises, chanting, meditation, breathing, and good vibes.

Zumba was listed as one of the most popular new exercises of 2012–and for good reason. Zumba Fitness is a high-energy, Latin-inspired, calorie-burning dance fitness-party that is sexy, fun, and effective!

There are literally Zumba classes everywhere, including most gyms these days, but if you need help finding a class, check out Zumba Los Angeles.

Ryan Heffington runs the Sweat Spot in Silver Lake and is our dance guru. An amazing dancer, Heffington brought the art of dance to everyone, including beginners, with his popular class called Sweaty Sundays on, you guessed it, Sundays.

Now he has dance classes all throughout the week, but his class on Sundays remains one of our favorites. It’s a fabulous extension from a night of partying before. Because who wants to leave the dance club? Plus the classes are super cheap at only $10 a pop.

After so many years of sacricing for my dreams, I’ve been looking at these videos and the sites and dreaming of “working out and sculpting myself” (for guess who?? Rigggght! of course also for myself). I’d love to be doing what some of those hot ladies are doing. After almost 12 years of working on and following dreams, I feel a little burned out, but still BELIEVING in MIRACLES (Fiona being the most beautiful MIRACLE of them all! I miss her so much!)
